Producing high-quality patin fish oil (PFO) rich in theseessential fatty acids requires an optimized extraction process. This study utilizedultrasound-assisted extraction (UAE) combined with response surface methodology – BoxBehnken Design (RSM-BBD) to optimize the extraction of PFO. Five variables wereexamined: temperature (30–60 °C), solvent composition (n-hexane in isopropanol, 30–90%), amplitude (30–90%), solvent-to-sample ratio (10:1–20:1), and cycle duration (0.2–0.8 s−1). The analysis identified solvent composition, amplitude, and solvent-to-sampleratio as significant factors influencing the response value (p < 0.005). Optimal UAEconditions were achieved at a temperature of 59 °C, solvent composition of 42%,amplitude of 41%, solvent-to-sample ratio of 20:1, cycle duration of 0.8 s−1, and anextraction time of 25 min. Fatty acid profiling revealed that PFO extracted using UAEcontained omega-3 fatty acids, including α-linolenic acid (ALA) at 1.36% andeicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) at 0.46%, as well as omega-6 fatty acids, namely linoleic acid(LA) at 19.06% and arachidonic acid (AA) at 0.85%. These results demonstrate theefficiency of UAE in extracting high-quality PFO.
